Young Legs

“innocent, free and intricate handclap-worthy are Young Legs’ tunes. Honestly, in a world riddled with so much angst, it’s kind of a breath of fresh air!” - Deb Draisin | Jersey Beat

“Atmospheric and beautiful. One of my favorite albums for a walk through the bogs at dusk” - Ryan Davis | Coffee Escapism

“as delicate as early Leonard Cohen and as harmonically sophisticated as Sufjan Stevens, or even Rubber Soul-era Beatles.” - Joey DeGroot | Music Times

“really impressed with Steve’s singing voice, playing, and song arrangements.” - Milton Likes Bands

Originally the biography for the New Jersey Indie Folk band Young Legs read as follows, “Steven Donahue likes to make music. Matt Olsson, Ezra Lowery and Ashley Simon like to play it with him.” That is about all you need to know about this delicate mix of folk and indie rock that is Young Legs. Donahue’s first album “The Fog and The Forest” follows the story of a disenchanted lover who permanently finds solace in a misty wood. The follow up material was Young Legs first single “Resolution” and B-side “Small Truths” which was a pre-cursor to their full length “Promise Of Winter” brought to you from the New Jersey label Mint 400 Records.

Label owner Neil Sabatino had this to say about his newest acquisition, “ It’s rare but every once in a while you hear just the littlest snippet of a band and think, I have to work with these guys, they are why I started a label, for bands like this.” Their newest effort shows a band that is growing and finding their own unique sound. “Promise of Winter” is the kind of masterpiece most bands strive their entire careers to create.

The band boasts a wide variety of influence but on the surface has elements of Paul Simon, Sea Wolf, Vampire Weekend, Jon Brion, and many others. Their albums as a whole sounds like the newest Wes Anderson soundtrack. Young Legs are bound to excite indie fans that have a pension for folk. Young Legs is sure to be a staple in the indie record collection of even the most discerning indie rock fan.
